Wasn't it just yesterday I was complaining about the heat and peeling off my pants the minute I walked in the door? That link doesn't really go to a photo of me peeling my pants off, I just wanted to see if you'd click it. Fall really snuck up on me and I'm fine with that.

I'm looking forward to making more casseroles and knitting more scarves. I even thought about branching out and trying to knit something a little more interesting, like a scarflet or neckwarmer. But it turns out (I have no idea why I'm surprised about this, given my past experience with onlineresearch), a search for "free scarflet pattern" results in some really terrifying imagery.

If the movie Life Is Beautiful were re-shot on location in 1992 Portland, Oregon, this could be a still frame.

Also, this is dead serious: This angora neck cuff for men is priced at $165, which is pri-tty spendy, considering I found a whole OUTFIT for $51.99. I sort of feel bad driving traffic to their website, knowing they are not kidding around about their angora, but you have to admit it's ridiculous. And not a little bit creepy. It's moments like this I wish I wasn't such a visual thinker.

I never intended this blog to be a collection of sarcastic product reviews, but somehow it just happens. Forgive me?

There are some pretty amazingly horrible things out there to knit. Try "cowl" or "smoking ring." I knit myself one from knitty.com and haven't decided if I feel funny wearing it or not. I'll decide when its paired with my pea coat and not cordory jacket.
